Playing, shmlaying. Look at the series, for Christ's sake. It's only the second game and I'm up 12 to 2. Playing come and go, yubb, but Pittsburgh, "the Penguin," they only play Philadelphia once, maybe twice in a lifetime.

Hrm. I asked someone at work and they said "I'd play a sport any day over watching anything on TV."

That's the way I was leaning, and I've decided to play.

I'll probably catch part of the last period. But I just can't see turning down being active, let alone playing an awesome sport like hockey, for sitting on a couch or barstool watching a game. If it were the finals, or something like that... maybe I'd choose differently.
